Post Script

In Luke 19, Jesus shares the parable of the Ten Minas - an unwanted king, a gift to the servants, investing and waiting for his return, and the king's response. Paul and Dave discuss what we learn about Jesus as king, His kingdom, and how we live now as we wrestle with this parable.

What does the parable of the buried treasure tell us about how we should live our lives? How should we learn to be transformed through the actions of following instead of just growing in knowledge of Jesus? Brad joins us for his parting words in his pastoral staff role, and leaves us with the challenge to invest in risking more to see God show up in ways that bring us joy-filled treasure.

What does this parable reveal about our hearts and desires? What's the difference between a posture and actions of forgiveness and reconciliation? Paul and Dave unpack the parable of the unforgiving servant and the generous king.

How do we see ourselves in this well known parable, and what are we being invited into? How do we feel knowing the older brother is left standing in a field at the end of this parable? Chris & Dave talk about the ways in which we are all prodigals, and how we are invited to abide in relationship with God.

How do we learn to pay attention to this surprising and powerful kingdom that Jesus talks about - like a mustard seed or yeast? Paul & Dave talk about these parables and how we can learn to see what God is doing in our lives and the world around us.

Why did Jesus teach in parables, and what are they? Paul and Dave dive into the first in our parables series by talking about what parables invite us into, and how we can listen well and find ourselves becoming good soil.

Where are we going as a church, and what does it look like for all of us to embrace the transformation God is doing in us? Paul and Dave jump back on the mic to unpack what we feel God is calling us into and how you can take next steps to further align your life to the way of Jesus.

Why do we need to memorize when we can google anything we need? How do we build this internal library of scripture, and where should we start? Chris and Dave close off our scripture passage by talking about the good (and hard!) work of memorization.

How do we learn about context and how to interpret what we read in the Bible? What's a good place to start, and how do we make time and prioritize all of the practices? Chris and Dave chat more as we continue in our series on the practice of scripture.

What does it look like to meditate on scripture - to allow the truth of God to fill us instead of emptying our minds? How do our bodies play into things, and what role do some of the harder parts like the Law play in this practice? Chris and Dave dig into week two of our scripture practice series.
